Be different. (Randy A.)\u00a0 For those that don\u2019t know, that\u2019s Unique Selling Proposition. That\u2019s what sets you apart from everyone else. Own your differences and carry yourself with confidence and conviction. You\u2019ll be unstoppable. (Nathan H.)<\/li><li>Don&#8217;t buy anything! I&#8217;m so sick of the solicitations! Do your own research, the amount of advice and opinions on how to run and market your business is also overwhelming! Not bad, just how do you choose when there are so many ways. (Jodi H.)<\/li><li>Don\u2019t give up. The First two years are always the hardest. If you can push through those, you\u2019re in there. (Nathan H.)<\/li><li>I\u2019m in year two. Year one was was great. Sold some and learned a ton! But, in year two, If I didn\u2019t have a source of income I\u2019d be living in my car. I cut hair in a salon, at my home, and in people\u2019s homes. Plus I do photography as well. Between all three of them, it\u2019s still hard sometimes. My advice is to either have two years of living expenses or have a side hustle\u2026. Or two. (Bruce D.)<\/li><li>If you can master Social Media, you\u2019ll be a rockstar REALTOR! (John C.)\u00a0 [response by Paris M.] Yes. But, you&#8217;ve got to be well versed in the ins and outs of the industry. Financing, state laws, ethics, etc otherwise social media is just a piece of the big puzzle.<\/li><li>Join a team that gives you leads(there will be a split but some commission is better then none and you will also has a team to ask for advice and questions), work hard, and utilize your social media. (Samantha B.)<\/li><li>You don&#8217;t need business cards to succeed. You don&#8217;t need a website to succeed. Stop comparing yourself to others. Figure out your WHY. Stop spending money on leads and talk to people. (Tuesdee D.)<\/li><li>Have an experienced top selling coach or broker on speed dial. (Rick)<\/li><li>Everything works if you\u2019re consistent. (Oscar R.)<\/li><li>Whatever you do for fun, especially athletic, join a big group that meets regularly. Mines golf and hockey. Groups meaning many people. Circle is key (Jeff S.)<\/li><li>The right company helps. I started at the end of March and the company I was with wasn&#8217;t teaching me how to be successful. After 4 months on feeling like I was going nowhere I switched within 3 weeks I had clients and 2 houses under contract. They just closed 2 days ago and I got another under contract as of 3 days ago. Make sure when picking a company to find out how they can help you succeed. (Jeremy H.)<\/li><li>Just be you. There is so much fake bs out there. Be you and give your business card (or the virtual equivalent) to every single person you meet. Grocery store line, pta meeting, dog park. Let everyone you meet know you are a real estate agent. (Sean F.)<\/li><li>Build a business working by referral at a firm that wholly supports you.

(Yescenia V.)<\/li><li>Don\u2019t worry about leads. Focus on what\u2019s on your phone. They are your data bank. And don\u2019t sign up for mentoring that you have to pay extra cash. Try to get the mentoring from your brokerage. (Mariefe B.)<\/li><li>Have a positive attitude and don\u2019t give up. (Marissa W.)<\/li><li>Get a COACH! (Jerry B.)<\/li><li>If you don\u2019t know, ask your Broker\u2026.Get you a good lender, home inspector\u2026and a good handy man. (April M.)<\/li><li>Answer your phone! (Jarah D.)<\/li><li>Don&#8217;t do it unless you have 1 year OF Savings to live off of AND find a solid team to work for who will mentor you. (Matt B).<\/li><li>Have a savings account or a second job. I worked at the VAMC for 10 years 3.30 until Midnight and sold Real Estate during the day. I have retired from the VA since 2019 . I also have a Railroad Retirement. I\u2019ve been realtor 16 years but never depended on it for my sole income. Just starting out it\u2019s expensive. (Cindy K.)<\/li><li>Document &#8211; EVERYTHING. (Kim B.)<\/li><li>Feed that data base everyday. (Laurel W.)<\/li><li>Walk away from difficult customers who give you the run around. They rarely buy, are not loyal and are more trouble than they are worth. Only work with people who value your time and expertise. I never chase a customer. (Kristen S.)<\/li><li>\u2026or or if they say they&#8217;ve had other agents before and they just &#8220;stopped talking&#8221; to them.. red flags.

(Christy P.)<\/li><li>Don\u2019t give up. (Angela M.)<\/li><li>Join a team. (Arthur C.)<\/li><li>Talk to people &amp; let everyone know you\u2019re an agent! (Stacy M.)<\/li><li>Don\u2019t forget the importance of mentorship and training. (Silvia M.)<\/li><li>Be your authentic self. You\u2019ll see so many people who operate successfully in ways that work for them, but find a system that works for you and follow it. (Brenda H.)<\/li><li>Create relationships and nurture them. (Stephanie W.)<\/li><li>Learn the foundation of prospecting and managing a CRM. (Rodney W.)<\/li><li>Be honest! (Vickie E.)<\/li><li>Believe in yourself!! Give up the good for the Great! (Cathye D.)<\/li><li>Keep your head up.

Joshua F.)<\/li><li>Success only happens through hard work and perseverance. NEVER give up. (Kathryn L.)<\/li><li><p>Work your soi. Don&#8217;t be afraid of cold calling. If someone hangs up, alright on to the next. Don&#8217;t be afraid of the phone. Do. The. Lead. Gen. Script practice EVERYDAY. For 10-15 at least. Master one thing at a time. Don\u2019t try to throw everything at the wall &amp; see what sticks, don&#8217;t try to recreate the wheel 100x.<\/p><p>Do not look at anyone you talk to or work with as a transaction or as dollar signs, they are human beings too so making the personal connection with them is so important. I do lead gen for my team. I&#8217;m our ISA, my biggest tip to any new agent on our team that has no lead gen experience is exactly that last one. In the notes I pass off to the agents when I set them an appointment, I make note if they have kids, pets, a special interest they mentioned, &amp; ESPECIALLY their big why on why they want to buy\/sell\/invest. Dig deep on their motivation &amp; refer back to it. (Cory P.)<\/p><\/li><li>Join a team (Chris H.)<\/li><li>Establish your hours. Don&#8217;t be available 24\/7. They will run you to the ground. (Charles F.)<\/li><li>NEVER GIVE UP ! (Katherine Garcia)<\/li><li>When you have a question about the contract, you can usually find the answer&#8230; in the contract.<p>Just the idea of a contract can be intimidating in the very beginning, but if you read it over and over again, you&#8217;ll start to see if as a useful tool you can refer back to over and over again throughout the transaction. Also, you&#8217;ll understand it a lot quicker if you try to find an answer yourself while you&#8217;re waiting to hear back from another professional on the matter.<\/p><p>Be proactive and ask questions. Just don&#8217;t send it off until you confirm you&#8217;ve landed on the correct interpretation. (Nikki R.)<\/p><\/li><li>Keep going! (Kathryn T.)<\/li><li>Don\u2019t stress about marketing or branding at first. Get in front of as many people as possible. And just be genuine. Do whatever you can to just help people. Real Estate in the end is a people business. (Daniel C.)<\/li><li>Join a team! (Natalie Y.)<\/li><li>I&#8217;d say it&#8217;s difficult for some experienced agents to be helpful in areas such as lead generation. Because they have been in the business long enough that virtually all of their leads come via referrals. Don&#8217;t get me wrong they still lead generate, But not like a new agent has to lead gen. (John C.)<\/li><li>Be &#8220;all in&#8221; or get out. (Chris R.)<\/li><li>Join a team and work your butt off! Invest in yourself! Ask tons of questions. Don&#8217;t be afraid to ask for the appointment! (Mike B.)<\/li><li>Go hard on prospecting from day 1. And most importantly, stay consistent with it. You can hate Cold-calling all you want, but it&#8217;s a cheap and quick way to build a listing-based business. Look at Ricky Carruth, Brandon Mulrenin, and Bryan Casella. All top agents, all Cold-callers. (Victor V.)<\/li><li>Never give up. (Juanita P.)<\/li><li>Know the lending side before you start jumping in the sales side of things. (Jennifer G.)<\/li><li>Don\u2019t chase the money. Take care of people, work hard, be honest and it will come. (Tabitha T.)<\/li><li>Invest in books. They help with getting your in the right mindset to be successful. (Mary W.)<\/li><li>Have a goal and get a mentor (Shekhar G.)<\/li><li>Get started and never quit. (Richard S.)<\/li><li>Find a Mentor. (Lisa H.)<\/li><li>If you don&#8217;t have listings ask someone in your office if you can advertise their listings. Don&#8217;t do open houses alone. (Denise P.)<\/li><li>Spend each day doing something that will get you business tomorrow. (Brian B.)<\/li><li>Don&#8217;t go out showing if your client are not qualified. (Valeria V.)<\/li><li>Be honest to your clients and yourself. (Brenda B.)<\/li><li>Don\u2019t jump around chasing higher splits. (Terry K.)<\/li><li>Get on a team. (Darryl P.)<\/li><li>Surround yourself with the right people. Don&#8217;t get hung up on a Brokerage name, commission split, etc. Find the right PEOPLE and let them pour into you. (Walter K.)<\/li><li>Lead with revenue meaning don\u2019t pay for leads before you are generating income on your own. Open houses are free. Do them And do them well. (Jared R.)<\/li><li>Build relationships. The rest will come. (Jennifer K.)<\/li><li>As long as you never quit you will never fail! (Gabriel B.)<\/li><li>Prospect prospect prospect contacts and be genuine. 40-70 contacts a day you can\u2019t loose. Have the expectation that you won\u2019t close a deal your first 6-8 months . (Eddie C.)<\/li><li>Always look for leads and share that you\u2019re an agent with everyone. (Jay M.)<\/li><li>Get a good mentor (Harry B.)<\/li><li>Keep your head down and keep plowing forward. You got this. (Charlie P.)<\/li><li>Get involved in your community and get your name out there. Tell everyone you interact with that you are an agent and give them a couple of your cards. Grow your sphere of influence. Help people as much as you can. They will remember you over someone else. (Dana S.)<\/li><li>Build your network and while in the process learn the process of all aspects of the deal and documents so you can execute timely! Visualize, Believe, Take Action &amp; Be Helpful and Dependable to your clients. Find a trusted coach. (Geraldine N.)<\/li><li>It&#8217;s crucial to Find a broker that believes in training and mentoring and gives you leads. Don&#8217;t worry about the split. Worry about support and guidance to help you get on your feet. (Ashley D.)<\/li><li>Start your database NOW. (Barbara B.)<\/li><li>Have 6 months of reserves saved and set aside before you start this business &#8211; if you can. (Myesha W.)<\/li><li>Be consistent in whatever you choose to do for marketing. (Nicole S.)<\/li><li>Don&#8217;t focus on what others are doing. Do your own thing. Get on socials, spend some Facebook &amp; IG Ads dollars, have a strategy in place on what you are focused on, how you will get there and how to adjust. Take all the data you need and re-adjust.

Why?\u00a0 It can be very expensive, very competitive, and it may just plain not work for you depending on your targetted zip codes.<\/p><p>We are not 100% against buying Zillow leads once you have dozens and dozens of client transactions closed and you can reach out to them for reviews to place on your Zillow profile.<\/p><p>In fact we have personally spent tens of thousands on Zillow leads. It works for us because we are in a high price point zip code and we also have dozens of reviews in our Zillow profile.<\/p><p>We are ok paying $4,000+ or more for a month of leads if we can close one transaction that nets us a $15,000 commission check. (by the way, $4k is a random number. It&#8217;s not exactly what we spend).<\/p><p>Having said that if you are a new real estate agent with a limited budget, Zillow may wipe out your budget very, very quickly.<\/p><p><strong>Get a Real Estate Coach<\/strong> &#8211; This isn&#8217;t the worst real estate advice but most brand new real estate agents can&#8217;t afford that luxury. The best real estate coaches can be very expensive.<\/p><p>As a new agent we would start with the basics. Find a good brokerage who you can call for advice and some mentoring when needed. Setup your social profiles.<\/p><p>Get your <a href=\"https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/best-idx-wordpress-plugins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IDX<\/a> website setup (preferably one that also has lead capture like <a href=\"https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/showcase-idx-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Showcase IDX<\/a>). Start working your sphere.<\/p><p>Again, a real estate coach can be very beneficial for an agent that has a little basic experience in the field but we wouldn&#8217;t jump into right away or until you have the budget.<\/p><p><strong>Don&#8217;t listen to Real Estate Agents<\/strong>. lol (Don C.)<\/p><p>Ok, so he was just joking.\u00a0 But there is a vast amount of amazing and free real estate agent tips you can get from fellow agents especially in the Facebook groups.<\/p><p><strong>Put ad in a newspapers full page.<\/strong> (Alejandro L.)<\/p><p>Another joke.\u00a0 As a new real estate agent I think you are already smart enough not to try that.<\/p><p><strong>Change Your Job<\/strong> (Rana F.)<\/p><p>Another LOL. Although eventually, if you don&#8217;t take the job seriously or put in the hard work this one could turn out to become a reality for many new real estate agents.<\/p><\/blockquote><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4781 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/real-estate-blog-header-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"New Real Estate Agent Advice\" width=\"331\" height=\"187\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/real-estate-blog-header-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/real-estate-blog-header-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/real-estate-blog-header-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/real-estate-blog-header-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/real-estate-blog-header-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/real-estate-blog-header.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 331px) 100vw, 331px\" \/>That&#8217;s all for the worst new real estate agent advice. Here are some final thoughts.<\/p><p>There was one other comment in which I personally really agree (it&#8217;s not so much a tip but see below).<\/p><p>My wife and I are a husband and wife team.\u00a0 We also have three kids.<\/p><p>We have done very well over the last several years in our real estate careers and this career can give you a great lifestyle if you want to work hard.\u00a0 Disclosure: I owe it all to my wife who is the rock star \/ better half of our real estate team.<\/p><p>Here is the comment that was written by a Joe G. that I wanted to share:<\/p><blockquote><p><i><b>Next time you say &#8220;dang, must be nice&#8221; you might want to understand a lifestyle that made it possible! <\/b><\/i><\/p><ul><li><i>8-5 didn&#8217;t make it.<\/i><\/li><li><i>Parking on the couch to watch TV didn&#8217;t make it.<\/i><\/li><li><i>Sleeping in on Saturdays didn&#8217;t make it.<\/i><\/li><li><i>Calling in when sick didn&#8217;t make it.<\/i><\/li><li><i>Being content with where we&#8217;re at didn&#8217;t make it. <\/i><\/li><li><i>It came from some 15-20 hour days.<\/i><\/li><li><i>It came from beating the sun up.<\/i><\/li><li><i>It came from working on weekends.<\/i><\/li><li><i>It came from sacrificing family time.<\/i><\/li><li><i>It came from wanting a little better tomorrow.<\/i><\/li><\/ul><p><i>These are a few things to consider before you throw out &#8220;dang, must be nice&#8221; at someone!

We don&#8217;t recommend brand new real estate agents try Zillow leads.<\/p><p>I was supposed to only list my one best piece of advice but that&#8217;s too hard!\u00a0 I also wish I had experimented more with some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/video-email-marketing-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">best video email platforms<\/a>.\u00a0 They make staying in touch with clients super personable and they are really not very expensive.<\/p><p>We have even joined expired listing services for their geo leads and expired leads. More experienced agents should check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/agentmarketingessentials.com\/redx-reviews-pricing-and-discount\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">REDX reviews<\/a> if you have considered using them as another lead source.<\/p><p>In closing, don&#8217;t get discouraged or give up too quickly. You can and will have a successful real estate career with the right mindset and hard work.<\/p><p>Please leave a comment and SHARE this post if you like it!
